Before Eve there was another "first SHE" (called Lilith) - SHE was made from red clay like Adam but she would not obey Adam ! She fled paradise and became a dark spirit who wanders by night to harm little children ! That's why mothers sing a "Lullaby" (to protect their babies from the evil of Lilith) Even in Genesis one can find the two versions ! The second wife was made from a rib of Adam and she was willing to submit to Adam - she always obeyed Adam !
